Uses of "Having been" and "Past Participle" are the same in English grammar?

Are the following sentences are the same in English Grammar rules or meaning?

1. Having been humiliated by you, he left the city.
and
2. Humiliated by you, he left the city.

Both of your sentences are grammatical and have the same meaning.

I prefer the simpler "He left the city because you humiliated him."

They don't necessarily mean the same. Your title indicates that you intend to generalise from this example. You can't.
"Having been humiliated" means that, at some stage in the past, he was humiliated.
"Humiliated" implies that he still feels humiliated.
The difference could become much more obvious and relevant in other examples.

Context might help, but I don't see much evidence to support the distinction.
